Abstract

Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo identificar la relación entre la demanda por educación superior y variables relacionadas con su financiamiento. Se analiza cómo el financiamiento público y privado, además de las senales del mercado laboral, explican las matrículas en educación superior en tres regiones de Colombia: Bogotá, Cali y Medellín. El estudio se realizó a través de un modelo Datos de Panel y el periodo de estudio abarca entre 1990 y el 2005. Los resultados indican que incrementos de la tasa de interés promedio de los créditos educativos afectan negativamente la demanda de la matrícula universitaria en educación superior en las ciudades de análisis y los ingresos de las personas con formación profesional influyen positivamente. ***** This document studies the statistical relationship between public and private financing and the demand for higher education in Colombia. In particular, it addresses the three main cities in Colombia during 1990-2005. Through a panel data estimation, this study finds that increases in the average interest rate on education loans have a significant impact on the number of students registered (or “university enrollment”) at higher education institutions. On the other hand, increases in wages for individuals that have attained higher education (namely, undergraduate or graduate degrees at colleges and/or universities) have a positive impact on the demand for higher education.
